MMA fighter Cedric Marks formally charged with capital murder and burglary

Veteran MMA fighter Cedric Marks, 44, was formally charged with burglary of a habitation with intent to commit other felony/s last Wednesday in Temple, TX (per KCENTV). Marks was re-arrested — after he escaped a police van — last month under suspicion of multiple homicides.

Last week’s indictment against Marks is in connection to an August 2018 break-in at the Temple home of Jenna Scott, Marks’ ex-girlfriend. The remains of Scott and her friend Michael Swearingin were discovered in unmarked graves in Clearview, OK in January.

In February, Marks was charged with capital murder in connection to Scott and Swearingin’s deaths.
